I am a strong, strong supporter of you and your efforts in introducing your wonderful books to the world. The way you write is unmatched. I enjoy how your words create such a visual picture in my mind down to the smallest detail and how you tantilize/intrigue me to want to continue to read on. Love your work!

Hi my name is April, I'm a mother of 2 (16 and 6 yrs old, both girls). I live in California Canyon country and I enjoy all kinds of books. Although lately I've been sticking to Triologies or series. Lately I've been a book addict, opting to read rather than watch TV. Here's to making you books into a movie or TV series!!!! =D

Hey everyone my name is Jessica and I live in West Orange NJ with my hubby, his lil sister, my baby girl, and two dogs. I'm a book addict and try to write my own when I have a few spare minutes in my hectic life. I'm so glad I'm not the only one from Jersey, someone here is from the south I think. I have tons of ideas for the group and can't wait to share them with you all :)

Hi! My name is Rorie and I am a married mother of a 9 year old boy and we all live in Western Connecticut. I am a life-long reader (as are almost everyone in both my family and my husbands) and with growing up on Lake Ontario in Central New York I had countless hours to read while the snow fell and fell and fell....(and fell)! My husband and I are both engineers and have traveled with our jobs between the states of NC, MI, ME, and landed here in CT in 2001. We live just a little over an hour's drive to Manhattan and have enjoyed exploring the city.
My name is Shruti and I'm a freshman in college living in the San Francisco Bay Area. I've always loved to read, and as a child I was obsessed with Greek mythology. Now, romances serve as an escape from college life, and Delia's books are a comfort to read after a long day. In addition to reading, i love to dance (Ive been doing indian classical/ballet since i was 4), and I love exploring the Bay Area food scene
Have you seen Miss America? Miss New York won and for eat talent she danced a Bollywood dance. It's was beautiful!

Shruti, I have several close Indian friends and LOVE Indian dancing--as I mentioned on Jessica's post. Have you been to my very favorite restaurant The Rutherford Grill (in Napa Valley). If not you MUST try their grilled artichokes!

Hi All! My name is Marling and I just moved to the west coast! I am dying to do some roadtripping... too bad I don't have a friend like Alex to loan me his limo.. or his boat.. or heck I would so love a hot air balloon ride.
Anyhow, I too Love Greek mythology and what I love MOST about the characters from Delias amazing characters is how true they are to their Greek roots!

Hello everyone, I have enjoyed reading the introductions and just I realized I never introduced myself
I live in beautifully Southern California with my wonderful man and my 8 dogs. I love to read and found Delia's books about a year ago and have read them all several times since . I love this site and all the new friends I've made here. Delia is not just an amazing writer but more importantly a wonderful women. Not everyone put where they were from but I counted 8 states and three countries. That's awesome

NOOOO!! I might have to write the manager a letter. We go there SPECIFICALLY for their artichokes and wine...and ambiance. I would have cried if it had happened to me, lol. Their entire chain does these artichokes, but NO ONE can even match Rutherford's!
